lowered their forecasts for 2024: if just half a year ago, the German economy was expected to grow 1.3%, now the forecast has been cut to just 0.1%.
Why is growth used as a metric? What does it implicate?
Edit: does it mean growth of sales volume or production volume? If one takes inflation into account, a constant sales volume could mean a shrinking production volume?
You mean garage generical engineering? Genetical design instead of breeding and selection?
I see pros and cons.
Lvm could be the way to go. Start with the minimum amount of partitions (i.e. / and /boot and swap as lv, maybe efi as a real partition). Add additional lv later if/ when you need them. You can always re-size a partition and the wrapping lv when you want to re- distribute storage-space.
I never needed more than these partitions. But that is just my use case.
Edit: oh. Missed the Multi boot point. Forget what I wrote. :)
It's about the creation of artifical markets - Allowing patents on genetic modifications in lifeforms so that one can sell something that basically copies itself if you provide it with a place to grow (exclusively) and some water and light. It's highly problematic.
It's uncritical to play that utilisation rights game with music and videos and other works of art. No one starves to death from not listening to music. But you shouldn't play that game with food sources.
Thanks. That's interesting. The outcome looks positive regarding the yield sold/ha and spray of pesticides.
I wasn't able to find the duration of the study and an answer to the question: Are the improved yields/ reduced pesticide results stable over multiple years (1/5/10 years after the switch to Bt brinjal)? I searched for year and duration in the text and wasn't able to find it. But I'm at my mobile phone atm. 😒
Great. I would like to be able to do that.
Danke Merkel!
My knowledge stems from just my memory of one or two documentations I watched. But there they stated that the gmo advantage is just a marketing lie in the long run, because nature adapts and yields decrease and herbicide/ fungicide usage increases.
Is there a study that shows that gmo performs better (yield wise, impact on the fauna, toxicity) than all other approaches?
I need a sabbatical. Canada maybe or New Zealand. A retreat to a monastery also sounds nice. I will rebuild an old farm house. Something along these lines. :)
It doesn't have to be the truth, or does it?
A big problem is that farmers are not allowed to use the corn and and grain which they grew themselves on their own field as seeds. When they buy the engineered seeds and accompanied pesticides they are forced to do it every year.
That's a dangerous development in my opinion. You must not centralise seed production in that way.
Plus: the Roundup stuff really doesn't look healthy to me.
What the fork?
Nice. I really like this. Thank you!
